[quote=Anonymous][quote]I applaud you for your tempered, well-considered opinion. I must disagree, though. [b]I'm not really concerned whether some people beleive that an unfertilized egg is a person- it's just not, [/b]not anymore than a corporation is a person, though the law says they are. It's not in the best interest of a child to bear pregnancy after such a traumatic event and that is simply bad parenting to choose otherwise.[/quote]

Plan B contraceptives work in a couple of ways - they can prevent ovulation, fertilization, or implantation.  So in some cases, Plan B prevents implantation of a fertilized egg - to some people, life begins at the moment of conception, i.e., when the egg is fertilized.  You may not consider that fertilized egg to be a person, but some do.

I'm not taking a position one way or the other here, just clarifying that in the context of Plan B, we are not talking only about unfertilized eggs or disrupting/impeding the process of fertilization.  Sometimes that has already taken place by the time Plan B is used.  [/quote]
